Instructions for Customers:
How do I use the 2024/2025 School Saving Bonus at JP Books?
All parents of eligible enrolled students will receive an email from the Department of Education in November 2024 with details of how to apply for a Voucher. The School Saving Bonus vouchers will apply to textbooks and delivery fees. Vouchers must be redeemed no later than the 30th of June 2025.

Online Vouchers

Parents will need to use the Department of Education's online system to apply for a JP BOOKS specific online voucher. From there, voucher codes can be redeemed at the JP Books online checkout for a school booklist order. Online vouchers can only be redeemed online, not in-store.

If the cost of textbooks exceeds the value of the voucher, the balance will need to be paid by card. If the cost of textbooks is less than the value of the voucher, the remaining amount will be available for redemption on a future JP Books online booklist order. Any remaining value on vouchers cannot be redeemed for cash. After the expiry date, any remaining value on the voucher becomes void.
